Bipolar disorder is a condition in which the person experiences extreme mood swings. They experience emotional highs, known as mania or hypomania, and lows, known as depression. These extreme shifts also affect behavior. These episodes can vary in duration and severity, but they have a significant impact on the person.
Bipolar disorder therapy helps people manage the symptoms better, stabilize mood, prevent relapse, and learn coping strategies. Therapy also supports individuals in adhering to their bipolar disorder treatment in UAE.
Symptoms of bipolar disorder include episodes of elevated mood, mania or hypomania, and a low mood or depression.
Some types of bipolar disorder include:
Bipolar disorder treatment in Dubai works to manage the symptoms, as the condition itself cannot be cured. The exact treatment plan is contingent on the condition of the patient, the severity of the symptoms, and their health. However, generally, it is composed of medication and therapy.
There are different medicines prescribed to manage bipolar disorder. The main purpose of medication is to stabilize the mood. While some medication is taken regularly, others are needed when symptoms worsen. Commonly prescribed medicines include:
Some of the commonly used psychotherapy techniques include:
CBT helps address negative thought patterns, thereby altering subsequent behaviors. It is beneficial in reducing the severity and frequency of the episodes, stabilizing mood, managing co-occurring conditions like anxiety, and preventing relapse.
Interpersonal therapy for bipolar disorder aims to improve an individual’s relationships with others since social contact and connections have a significant impact on mood. Other benefits of IPT include improved emotional awareness, stabilized relationships, and reduced risk of relapse.
As family also gets affected by the condition, hence, involving them is important for a holistic treatment plan. Family-focused therapy (FFT) facilitates the individual and their family by working on communication, reducing conflict, providing a stable environment, and identifying and mitigating the risks.
Psychoeducation provides individuals with essential knowledge about the condition. The person learns how to manage the condition, identify the triggers and risks, make lifestyle changes, and prevent relapse. These can be done either in group settings or individually.
Other interventions can help improve the symptoms. These include:
According to a study of 961 people, 20.8% had bipolar disorder, thereby highlighting the prevalence of the disorder in the UAE. Hence, anybody exhibiting the symptoms of the condition should get a diagnosis at the earliest so they can start the bipolar disorder treatment in UAE. Living with the condition is hard, but treatment and support can help individuals lead fulfilling lives.
